It rained all day in the mountains.
The giant mutated pine tree, having been drenched in rain all day, had gone into a frenzy, driven only by its hunting instincts.
At a time like this, with two living, breathing humans delivered right to its doorstep, it's no wonder it goes insane.
Zhao Xiaoxiu, trembling in her father's arms, felt that her father's eyes seemed even more insane!
"Daddy's hungry, Xiaoxiu, can you wait for Daddy to fill his tummy?"
Just as the needles of the mutated pine had stood upright, gleaming like steel needles, Zhao Gang suddenly asked in a gentle voice.
Zhao Xiaoxiu looked at the mutated pine tree in front of her, which seemed to be baring its fangs and claws as if it wanted to devour everything, and then looked up at the gentle-looking man behind her. She swallowed hard.
The human cub tentatively asked, "Daddy, do you want to eat this mutated giant pine?"
Zhao Gang nodded and licked his lips in a human-like manner.
Zhao Xiaoxiu: Okay, I know you're craving it!
A sensible child will not cause trouble for adults.
Zhao Xiaoxiu obediently hummed in agreement, preparing to slide down from her father's arms.
The mutated pine suddenly launched an attack.
The pine needles, gleaming with a cold light, rained down on the father and daughter in dense swarms.
At the same time, the sharp grass behind them swayed and swept across like a spinning fan.
Zhao Xiaoxiu watched helplessly as the pine needles and blades of grass flew toward her, but her body lacked the agility to react in any way.
This sense of powerlessness, which she could see but couldn't escape, made her deeply realize how insignificant she was in the face of the mutants.
Just as the pine needles and grass were about to fall on the father and daughter.
Zhao Gang's body instantly swelled up, his human form faded, and he transformed into a flesh and blood body composed of countless bright red tentacles, embedding the cub in his arms into his body.
The pine needles, sharp as steel needles, flew into that mass of flesh and blood, only to be swept out by the flying fleshy tentacles.
The sharp blades swept in, as if countless blades were ready to completely shred its flesh.
However, the skin on that flesh seemed to be coated with lubricant, both elastic and resilient, and the sharp blades of grass slid weakly over that mass of flesh time and time again.
The seemingly chaotic and dangerous mutated grass became as insignificant as scratching an itch.
On the contrary, the giant mutated pine tree actually showed fear when it saw the blood-red tentacle.
Its branches trembled, and it quickly rolled up its leaves, wrapping itself into a huge tree ball.
Two tentacles lifted Zhao Xiaoxiu and set her down on the ground.
As soon as the mutated grass sensed the presence of food, it swarmed towards her like mad.
Before they could even get close, the two tentacles rolled up and opened, sweeping away all the mutated grass within a five-meter diameter of Zhao Xiaoxiu, creating a circular vacuum zone.
Having dealt with the mutated grass, the two tentacles poked Zhao Xiaoxiu's belly, signaling her to stay put.
Zhao Xiaoxiu nodded, and they returned to their constantly writhing, blood-red bodies.
The already enormous body continued to expand and extend until it completely enveloped and devoured the massive tree sphere...
In Zhao Xiaoxiu's bright pupils, a terrifying, gigantic, blood-red creature was reflected.
It has countless tentacles that can change size and length at will, clustering, licking, and stirring beneath its irregularly shaped, red, round body.
Those eyes hidden in the fleshy tips of the tentacles sometimes appear and sometimes disappear, like radars constantly transmitting information about their surroundings to the host.
In the child's eyes, there was no color other than blood.
If possible, could it swallow this entire mountain with its infinitely expanding body?
Logically speaking, Zhao Xiaoxiu should have been scared to face such a terrifying scene alone.
On the contrary, she didn't find the enormous creature in front of her terrifying at all. Her adrenaline was still rising, and her small body was trembling uncontrollably, filled with a fascination and longing for absolute power.
She wanted to become stronger, to become as strong as it!
It felt like a long time had passed, but in reality only two minutes had gone by.
The enormous flesh and blood body continued to compress and shrink, eventually piecing together the head and limbs that had been hidden inside the body, reconstructing Zhao Gang's appearance.
The spot where the mutated giant pine tree once stood is now empty.
Only a few pine needles gently fell on the human skeletons that had been forced to remain because of it.
What humans consider a giant mutated pine tree capable of destroying a town is nothing more than an appetizer in front of Zhao Gang.
Zhao Gang smiled at his daughter, looking quite pleased with himself.
Zhao Xiaoxiu took a deep breath and awkwardly reminded him, "Dad, you've lost your clothes."
Zhao Gang looked down and saw that he was indeed completely naked.
Several tentacles extended, quickly covering the vital parts to prevent harm to the cub's fragile mind.
But it's not a big problem; I have a spare set of clothes in my backpack.
After all, this wasn't the first or second time Zhao Gang had transformed and become completely naked.
Before going up the mountain, Zhao Xiaoxiu had reminded her father to bring an extra set of clothes.
So the father and daughter collected all the backpacks, machetes, firewood knives, and logs that were scattered around.
Zhao Gang took out the clothes from his backpack and changed into them.
The father and daughter belatedly exchanged a glance—
Oh no!
The two Meng brothers are still in the temple!
"Dad, hurry and save them!" Zhao Xiaoxiu immediately jumped onto Zhao Gang's back and urged anxiously.
Zhao Gang didn't know what was so urgent, but seeing how anxious the cub was, he also got a little anxious, carried Zhao Xiaoxiu on his back, and rushed back to the temple.
